i was spending some quality family time when my phone beeped and my dad goes 'technology these days, this donkey (referring to their beloved son aka me) is forever hooked onto his BB'.
i smiled gratefully for the lovely remark and i checked my phone to see whose pinging me and voila its my friend Jincy. She just joined a college in kerala for her bachelors.
i knew her ping meant some ones allready asked her out in college and i was quite right coz her ping stated pretty much the same thing but not entirely though.
i replied "thats nothing new for you right?! obviously you told him that you ve been going out for the past 4years right-rock steady relationship right :P'
'uhm eric...its not a he....it was a she!!!'
i burst out laughing and nearly dropped my phone in the process and my dad goes 'ah yes donkey like behaviour also these days...laughing to yourself...well done!!'
before i continue let me make one thing clear, i do not mean any offence to all the bi-s out there, im totally gay and bi-s rights pro but the whole scenario seemed a little too whacky to my usually oblivious 'bored with routine and used to normality' mindset/brain. i was expecting my friend to tell me that yet another guy was completely bowled over by her looks and after all the efforts to gather his guts and ask her out, he would be simply devastated when he realizes that shes allready got a bf, but this time it wasnt a guy who got smashed but it was a chic. i cant even imagine a chic going into the 'devdas-maar daala mode', imagine a chic telling madhuri dixit that she reminds her of paaro/jincy. Even Sanjay Leela Bhansali wont be able to come up with that sort of 'classic variety'!!wait a minute..why exactly am i talking about Madhuri dixit and SLB?!! weird!!
anyways lets get into the series of events that led to this drastic moment of unfortunate truth(or maybe fortunate because i got something to write about- selfish me)
Flashback:
Ever since my friend Jincy walked into her class there were these two chics - Cookie and Minnie who were obsessed with her and according to my friend, they had the huskiest voices ever known to mankind..sorry womankind...quite contrary to the sound of their names. what a deceitful world!!
(btw actual names are with-held by request :P if you're wondering why cookie then its coz im having a choc-chip and Minnie is Minnie-random,wait a min why am i getting into so many details this is just a narration right)
As the days went by Jincy realized that all of a sudden Minnie seemed to have retracted, she no longer seemed very interested in talking to her, whereas Cookie was literally on a roll.
Cookie always wanted to hold Jincy's hand while walking down the corridors and in class she always made a point to sit right behind her and one of her prime 'moves' was to try and run her finger down Jincy's necklace....oooooohhh!!!!nasty!!!!
well it was after this 'naughty' incident that jincy told her bf about the 'chronicles of Cookie' and they both had a good laugh about the whole scenario
after a couple more days of 'not so naughty' incidents, Cookie comes upto Jincy and asks her 'do you have a bf?' and jincy answered blantly 'yeah...been goin out for ages...'
cookie went psyched, she literally started pulling her hair out of frustration(obviously exagguration) 'nooooo...i never thougt i would tell you this but i have to coz i cant live like this anymore..its killing me inside...i love you...i love you very very much...i ve never felt like this way before about any gal or guy...i just cant stop thinking about you...you ve got to get rid of your b.f...its not right...' ( kal ha no ha bgm playing in the back ground)
JIncy's face was like shockedddddddddddd..pureeeeee shock...'are u crazy??' (Bgm unwinds....sudden stop!!!!)
Cookie gets all heartbroken..and says 'see this is why i dint wanna tell u...coz i knew this is how you'd react...u dont know wat i feel like..i really love u...'
Completely devastated Cookie looks up at Jincy, there was something noir about the twinkle in her eyes and she goes on (the bgm is now a very prominent govinda govinda govinda- sarkar theme)"
'Even Minnie had a crush on you but i had warned her off saying that your my girl' GULP!!!!
By the time i finished hearing the story, the first thing that came out of my mouth was a dialogue from the Imran Khan starrer flop movie "break Ke baad" - 'chics are weird!!'
Since gtalk has this wonderfooool capability of losing connection when you are at the brim of things, this conversation too was disrupted by the connection, but the next time i saw her online i did make a point to find out about what exactly is the state of Cookie.
Well for all those who are feeling bad for Cookie, chill dont worry, she still tags behind Jincy and doesnt allow other gals or guys to shake hands or give a hi-5 to Jincy, strictly no physical contact of any sorts permitted...officially Cookie is Jincy's bodyguard in college!!! Im not quite sure if thats a good thing or a bad thing.....
P.S there might be a cookie monster in your college as well, beware !! :P
